Copy or Move Template from Sharepoint Library to MSTeams Documents

(1) ShareShare

Posted on by 47

Hi,

 

Absolutely pulling my hair out over this at the moment so any help appreciated. I have a template word document which has quick parts to a sharepoint library, with columns which are used to populate the fields in the word document. I can create the file, store it to the library and then email a copy / download a copy as needed. This document can be downloaded and sent to others over email, can be stored on OneDrive and retains the information. 

 

Where my problem lies, is that I would like to be able to move this to other document libraries, specifically, onto a MSTeams document library. Whatever I do in Power Automate though, it always moves and is blank. I've tried creating to OneDrive and then onto the sharepoint, that doesnt work. My understanding is that my target document library (i.e. the MSTeams site), doesnt have the same columns as the original document library, and so that data is lost. So how can I move it? 

 

Another weird nuance, the template is actually updated using an "Update file properties" action in a flow, which gets the data from a PowerApp. If I manually create on the Sharepoint site and type into the template, save, and then try and move the file, it does contain the data in the fields appropriately in the word document.

 

Really struggling to understand a way around this, so any help appreciated!
